Valles and Associates Rehabilitation Services Inc. offers computerized muscle testing at its best. Motion Test and Muscle testing are the evaluation of contractile units, including muscles and tendons, and their ability to generate forces.

Valles and Associates Rehabilitation Services Inc. accurately and scientifically measures Manual Muscle Testing (MMT) and Range of Motion testing (ROM) is indicated in any individual with suspected or actual impaired muscle performance, including strength, power, or endurance. Impairments in muscle function may result from cardiovascular, pulmonary, musculoskeletal or neuromuscular disease or disorders. Identification of specific muscles or muscle groups with impaired function provides information for appropriate intervention, which may include strengthening exercises, functional drills, bracing, or compensatory muscle use.

Range of motion is the natural distance and direction of movement of a joint. Limited range of motion is a relative term indicating that a specific joint or body part cannot move through its normal and full range of motion.

Motion may be limited by a mechanical problem within the joint that prevents it from moving beyond a certain point, by swelling of tissue around the joint, by spasticity of the muscles, or by pain.

Diseases that prevent a joint from fully extending may, over time, produce contracture deformities, causing permanent inability to extend the joint beyond a certain fixed position.

In performing tests, patient safety is key. Motion Test will determine when functional testing is appropriate; for example, a person with a weight-bearing restriction should not perform a balance test on that lower extremity.

Tests can be used to document progress by measuring distance of reach, time, degrees of excursion, etc., as appropriate to the specific test.

Motion Test and Muscle testing is performed by our physicians, especially orthopedic doctors and physiatrists, in addition to physical therapists.

Receive 100% of the therapists' attention, rather than multiple clients to a single therapist resulting in minimal 'touch time' for each individual.
